Summary
“You’ll come to learn that there’s only one thing worse than having nothing.”
Trying to hold onto his fight, Peter shoots back, “Yeah? And what’s that?”
“To have nothing, after being able to believe you could have everything.”
The streets are dirty, crowded, and the jagged bumps in the asphalt are hardly comfortable to sleep on. They’re home, though.
Peter is just about finished with New York City. It’s gotten impossibly harder to find even a scrap of food, and what little belongings he does have are unlikely to keep him alive through the winter. And the memories. God, the painful memories here.
So he saves up. Makes a plan to get out of there.
Then, somehow, he accidentally saves Tony fucking Stark from a gang of eight mercenaries, and the majestic plan disintegrates into ash.
The worst part about it, he knows, isn’t even that he met Tony. It’s that Tony met him.

Charlie Spring is thrilled to be part of Nathan Ajayi’s production of "Hamlet", but Elle and Tao are worried about him. He swears he’s fine... but they can’t help feeling like Charlie is hiding something.
Tara is ecstatic when her childhood best friend is cast in "Hamlet." After a rough start, it becomes clear to everyone that Nick is talented. However, the newcomer to London is cagey about his past- and his present, for that matter.

The universe, and their meddling friends, have other plans.

Summary
Charlie Spring endures constant and horrific bullying during Year 9 after being outed as gay. He tries to ignore it. Tries to not let it get to him. Tries to ignore all the sneers and harsh words thrown at him day in and day out. But it hurts. It gets to him. He slowly becomes more and more a shell of himself, becomes more and more angry, until one day he just snaps. He gets in an all out brawl with the guys who just won't leave him alone and winds up hitting his breaking point, having a complete mental breakdown. Everything changes that day. He's angry, pissed off, and he can't hold it in anymore. He builds a wall of defense around himself made out of violence and anger, shoving all his other emotions and personality down in order to protect himself.
Until Nick Nelson comes along and completely shatters everything he thought he knew, and forces him to start feeling again.

Summary
Nick Nelson is a rugby prodigy, and he feels all the crushing weight of what that means. His future has never been his to choose, and he's always been okay with that if it meant making his father, rugby legend Stephane, proud. However, when a video of Nick and the boy who awakened his sexuality that Nick had purposefully kept dormant for years kissing is recorded and spread around campus, Nick's world is flipped on its axis. He's forced into a public outing he wasn't quite ready for and Nick is left to deal with the aftermath that leaves him with a lot of drama, hurt, and baggage that he’s not sure he ever wants to unpack. So, he swears off any distractions, closing the door on all of it - love and relationships and his desires to fulfill a part of himself no one else seems to want to accept. If it isn’t about rugby, if it isn’t about fulfilling his pre-determined destiny, he doesn’t entertain it. And it's all okay because all Nick wants for his last year of uni is to be someone his father can be proud of again. That is until he comes across one Charlie Spring.
Or an au where Nick is struggling to understand himself, Charlie is trying hard to reinvent himself, and the universe is struggling to keep them apart.
